That y-pipe could possibly be the one from the GS series. You'd be better off fabricating your own. If you're wanting to keep your cat back system, you're going to end up needing to trim, extend and or modify the angle either way to connect up to it. Just pick up a couple of exhaust flanges from Lextreme, and pick up the Y and some pipe from Summit Racing or your favorite vendor.

I took this route and used to Lextreme flanges connected to 2.5" pipe that ran to a Magnaflow 3" y-adapter and then 3" pipe the rest of the way back. The Magnaflow y-adapter is a formed y and not a welded y. Compared to the available pre-welded y's and the one in your picture, it flows much better due to less restriction.

I don't have a great picture of the system but I may be able to get a good one this weekend if the weather cooperates. While I have the car up for an oil change I'll snap off a picture. I had the 2.5" pipes run from the exhaust manifolds back to the drive shaft carrier bearing location and the y-adapter was installed at that point, then it's 3" the rest of the way back.

No idea. If you have time, it shouldn't be too hard to fab one up.

I cut the flange off of the cat and re-welded it into position so it would fit.

my hammer convinced the cats to fit properly lol
switching them around also helped these apparently only go on one way
